Mobile frame assembly for obstacle course systems

Abstract

A mobile frame assembly includes a trailer assembly having a trailer body, a draw assembly and wheels. The mobile frame assembly includes a base assembly, an intermediate assembly and an upper assembly each having at least two primary rails. Lower support risers are coupled to the base assembly primary rails and extend to the intermediate assembly primary rails forming a lower frame assembly. Upper support risers are coupled to the intermediate assembly primary rails and extend at least to the upper assembly primary rails. A platform assembly including a launch platform, a landing platform and a safety pit positioned therebetween is disposed at least partially within the lower frame assembly. An obstacle assembly is disposed generally within the mobile frame assembly over the safety pit, wherein at least some of the upper support risers are telescoping members operable to expand the distance between the obstacle and the safety pit.

       4. The mobile frame assembly as recited in  claim 1  wherein the safety pit further comprises a generally monolithic lower pad layer and a distributed upper pad layer. 
     
     
       5. The mobile frame assembly as recited in  claim 1  wherein the safety pit further comprises a resilient lower layer and a distributed upper pad layer. 
     
     
       6. The mobile frame assembly as recited in  claim 1  wherein the at least one obstacle assembly is selected from the group consisting of agility obstacles, balance obstacles and strength obstacles. 
     
     
       7. The mobile frame assembly as recited in  claim 1  wherein the at least one obstacle assembly is secured to at least one of the platform assembly, the intermediate assembly, the upper assembly and the upper support risers. 
     
     
       8. The mobile frame assembly as recited in  claim 1  wherein the at least one obstacle is selected from the group consisting of a quintuple steps obstacle, a slack ladder obstacle, a cargo net obstacle, a pipe slider obstacle, a salmon ladder obstacle, an unstable bridge obstacle, a warped wall obstacle and a cliffhanger obstacle. 
     
     
       9. The mobile frame assembly as recited in  claim 1  wherein the lower support risers are independent from the upper support risers. 
     
     
       10. The mobile frame assembly as recited in  claim 1  wherein the intermediate assembly further comprises at least two intermediate assembly cross rails that are coupled to the intermediate assembly primary rails. 
     
     
       11. A mobile obstacle course system comprising:
 a plurality of mobile frame assemblies positioned in sequence relative to one another, the mobile frame assemblies including: 
 a trailer assembly having a trailer body, a draw assembly coupled to the trailer body and wheels operably associated with the trailer body; 
 a base assembly securably mounted to the trailer assembly, the base assembly having at least two base assembly primary rails; 
 an intermediate assembly having at least two intermediate assembly primary rails; 
 an upper assembly having at least two upper assembly primary rails; 
 a plurality of lower support risers coupled to the base assembly primary rails and extending at least to the intermediate assembly primary rails forming a lower frame assembly; 
 a plurality of upper support risers coupled to the intermediate assembly primary rails and extending at least to the upper assembly primary rails; 
 a platform assembly including a launch platform, a landing platform and a safety pit positioned therebetween, the platform assembly disposed at least partially within the lower frame assembly; and 
 at least one obstacle assembly disposed generally within the mobile frame assembly over the safety pit; 
 wherein at least some of the upper support risers further comprise telescoping members operable to expand the distance between the at least one obstacle and the safety pit. 
 
     
     
       12. The mobile obstacle course system as recited in  claim 11  wherein at least two of the mobile frame assemblies are secured together. 
     
     
       13. The mobile obstacle course system as recited in  claim 11  wherein groups of the mobile frame assemblies are positioned in rows. 
     
     
       14. The mobile obstacle course system as recited in  claim 11  further comprising bridge assemblies extending between pairs of the mobile frame assemblies. 
     
     
       15. The mobile obstacle course system as recited in  claim 11  wherein the telescoping members further comprise inner and outer sleeve members wherein, in a first configuration, the inner sleeve member are slidable within the outer sleeve members and, in a second configuration, the inner sleeve members are secured to the outer sleeve members.
